Economical hatch screens can be got at most "Dollar"-type stores. Two per package. Held in place by a suction cup & string. On my 1997, H376 it takes two for large forward hatch, & one each on midship hatches. They also reduce sun glare, so I use four across the long topside window. One could use them on side windows too. Let's see, for me, that's a total of 8 screens at 2 for $1. Sure beats the $37 apiece the French & other Europeans are paying. N'est pas !!??!! C'est domage !! : o I also use them on my car door window to reduce sun heat & glare. They work great ! AND, the price is right !! ; } :dance: Hope this helps. Fair Winds.... MRF

RG, The mosquito hatch screens that are advertised in the column adjacent to my post, and that won the Pitman Award from sail Mag, are the EXACT SAME screens that I buy at the Dollar Store as stated in my blog. The company in the video is Waterline Design out of Amsterdam, Netherlands. Their prices are in the Thirty dollars ranges. What a RIP OFF !!!!! :naughty: Hope this helps. Fair Winds.... MRF
Locating Hatch Screens
RG, I just saw your message & went to the $ Store website. The screens are on pg. 3, " Auto Screen Shades", 163/4 X 14 ", SKU # 3A000743, 65cents !! ( I pay a minimum of $ 1 for them. The picture shows them folded. Enlarge pic and look at upper right cornere of bag top for a true pic. They usually come 2 X per bag. You might have to check w/ $ Store to be sure. They're also available from other " dollar type" stores, auto stores, etc. Don't forget to get some for your car windows. They're great when the sun is beating down from your side while driving. You can see thru them to see your mirrors. Be sure to remove before rolling down window while driving. Two have blown out of my window !! OOOOPS !!! Hope this helps. Fair Winds.... MRF

John,
It did not work out. Wanted to order 4 via their website. With your info I found the screens on the website, clicked "cart". But, darn, online is a minimum order of $500 needed. Wished there would be a store in my area. Here are Dollar Tree and Family Dollar Stores and they do not carry that product.
